本研究旨在解决一个相对较大的老年人群体之间的辅助语音理解的个体差异。老年人组包括98名成年人（50名女性和48名男性），年龄范围为60至86岁（平均值= 69.2）。听力损失是这个年龄组的典型特征，大约90%的人没有戴过助听器。所有受试者都完成了一系列测试，包括认知（6项措施），心理物理（17项措施）和言语理解（9项措施），以及言语，空间和听觉质量（SSQ）自我报告量表。大多数言语理解测量利用竞争言语，而非言语心理物理测量被设计成利用被认为与竞争言语中的言语感知相关的现象（例如，流分离、调制检测干扰）。所有言语理解的测量都是在对言语刺激施加频谱整形的情况下进行的，以通过至少4000 Hz完全恢复可听度。所使用的措施被证明是可靠的，在老年人和28个年轻的正常听力成年人的参考组相比，年龄组的差异，观察到许多措施。主成分因子分析成功地应用于减少独立和依赖（语音理解）措施的多元回归分析。这样做产生了一个全球认知处理因素和五个非语音心理声学因素（听力损失，双耳分音信号检测，多脉冲掩蔽，流隔离，调制检测）作为潜在的预测因子。这组六个潜在的预测变量被添加到受试者年龄，环境声音识别（ESI），和文本识别阈值（TRT）任务（中断语音识别的视觉模拟）的性能。这些变量被用来成功地预测一个全球辅助语音理解因素，约占60%的方差。
This study was designed to address individual differences in aided speech understanding among a relatively large group of older adults. The group of older adults consisted of 98 adults (50 female and 48 male) ranging in age from 60 to 86 (mean = 69.2). Hearing loss was typical for this age group and about 90% had not worn hearing aids. All subjects completed a battery of tests, including cognitive (6 measures), psychophysical (17 measures), and speech-understanding (9 measures), as well as the Speech, Spatial, and Qualities of Hearing (SSQ) self-report scale. Most of the speech-understanding measures made use of competing speech and the non-speech psychophysical measures were designed to tap phenomena thought to be relevant for the perception of speech in competing speech (e.g., stream segregation, modulation-detection interference). All measures of speech understanding were administered with spectral shaping applied to the speech stimuli to fully restore audibility through at least 4000 Hz. The measures used were demonstrated to be reliable in older adults and, when compared to a reference group of 28 young normal-hearing adults, age-group differences were observed on many of the measures. Principal-components factor analysis was applied successfully to reduce the number of independent and dependent (speech understanding) measures for a multiple-regression analysis. Doing so yielded one global cognitive-processing factor and five non-speech psychoacoustic factors (hearing loss, dichotic signal detection, multi-burst masking, stream segregation, and modulation detection) as potential predictors. To this set of six potential predictor variables were added subject age, Environmental Sound Identification (ESI), and performance on the text-recognition-threshold (TRT) task (a visual analog of interrupted speech recognition). These variables were used to successfully predict one global aided speech-understanding factor, accounting for about 60% of the variance.
